CS4 Master suite; can I install non intel applications on PPC G5?

Hi, I would like to install the CS4 Master suite on both my Intel G5, but also, if possible, Photoshop and Indesign onto my old PPC G5 too. I know the Master suite is specified as Intel only, but does anyone know if it is still possible to install the UB applications it contains?
Thanks in advance!

Andy,
>To my horror, I read on the box it only works on Intel machines. Would have been helpful if Adobe had made it clear on main page of web site.
If you spend that kind of money for anything, you simply do your due diligence
before purchasing. And Adobe
does have a clear link to system requirements for each app on its pages.
For the Master Collection, on the main page: http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/mastercollection the link is near the top of the white panel on the right. That link takes you to: http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/mastercollection/systemreqs where the very first bullet-point is "Multicore Intel® processor"
And the specs do not say, "Also runs on PowerPC G5 computers" because some of the included apps don't. The minimum system requirements to run
all included apps includes the multicore Intel Mac.

  • Unable to uninstall CS4 Master Suite

    I began having problems exporting from Premiere Pro, Media Encoder, and Encore,  After receiving a number of error messages I attempted to reload CS4 Master Suite.  The system would not allow me to reinstall CS4 Master Suite so I attempted to uninstall the suite.  I received messages telling me that they were unable to uninstall each of the programs howver, now I cannot access any of the CS4 Master Suite programs on my computer - they will not open.  I cannot uninstall CS4 Master Suite, I cannot install CS4 Master Suite, and I cannot use any programs in CS4 Master Suite.

    I did - seems to have removed the CS4 - but I still cannot reinstall the program?

  • After installing CS4 Master Suite on new Windows 7 X64 laptop, Premier Pro new projects window will not accept input.

    I'm migrating my CS4 Master Suite to a new computer.  The new system is a Dell M3800 running Windows 7 x64.  Install goes fine except for a failure on Flash install.  Once install is complete Premier Pro won't accept any input on the New Projects window.  You can click on the file name field and change it but that's about it.  No buttons will function.  If you change the name and leave the field you can not change it again.  No further input is accepted and the actual change you made isn't applied.  You can exit out of the window with the X.  You can also go to an existing project no problem.  All other applications seem to be working fine.
    Tried uninstall and cleanup and reinstall.  Problem does not change.  Made sure anti-virus and firewall were disabled before install.  No other applications are running during install.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  • CS4 master suite on retina macbookpro / mountain lion

    I have a question to which I haven't been able to find a conclusive answer online or on the forum so maybe by asking a direct question I will get further.
    I am currently running CS4 master suite on my imac. This version does everything I need so I have no direct requirement to upgrade to a higher version.
    I know will be investing in a macbookpro as a second machine for work on the go.
    My question is:
    1) Will my CS4 master suite install on a new macbookpro (retina or hi res screen).
    2) Will CS4 work on mountain lion or will it not work at all
    Is any body in the same situation or has anyone installed cs4 on a new macbookpro?
    Thanks for the help
    Paul

    Even those with CS6 are not particularly thrilled with the retina MacBooks from what I've read. Adobe will be updating Photoshop CS6 but they've made no commitment beyond that.
    Now would be the best time you'll ever have to upgrade. Beginning 1/1/13 you will be ineligble for upgrade pricing at all.
    And...until 8/31 you can move to Creative Cloud for only $29.99/month for the first year. After that it's $49.99.

  • Tech Comm and CS4 Master Suites

    Has anyone else tried to install the Technical Communications suite on top of the CS4 Master suite? We tried it here in our training facilities but could not have both installed at the same time. During the install we kept running into shared assets errors when we installed the TC suite over the Master suite. The only solution was to uninstall the Master suite then install the TC suite but then the same errors popped up when we tried to install the Master suite. So is there a way to have the best of both worlds?

    Call technical support. Installation issues for current versions is free.

    You can install on as many machines as you like.  Of those machines you can only have two of them activated at a time.  Of those two machines you can only be using one of them at any given time.

  • 49$ / month suite, can I install this on my laptop and Desktop?

    49$ / month suite, can I install this on my laptop and Desktop?

    Hi Jimmy,
    From the Creative Cloud FAQ, found here: http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html#purchasing
    "You can install the desktop applications available in Creative Cloud on your primary computer and one backup computer, as long as they are not running at the same time. You will have access to both the Mac OS and Windows versions, so if you have a Mac at home and a PC at work, for instance, you can install your applications on both. See the product license agreements page for more information."
    So to answer your question, yes you can install on your laptop and your desktop!
    Cheers,
    Michael

  • I brought  I pad air 3 months ago, but recently I can't install any application and can't make an update. Even I can't install the free application. I can see ... There is a previous purchase problem please Singh up your bank information again. Plz help

    Hi , I brought an I pad air 3 months ago. But recently I can't install any application and can't update any application. Even I can't install any free application. I can see one dialogue box about in red colors " there is a previous purchase problem please type your bank information correctly" . So I don't know what to do please help me. Thanks

    The message implies that a previous purchase may not have been paid-for due to problems collecting the money from your account. Have you tried logging into your account and updating/changing your payment details (tap on your in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your iPad and tap 'view Apple id' on the popup and sign into it) ? Until there is an accepted payment method on your account (credit card, redeemed iTunes gift cards) and what you owe has been paid then you won't be able to download anything (including app updates).

  • Dual Core Intel - can I install non-universal software?

    Can I install the non-universal version of Adobe Creative Suite onto my new G5 dual-core duo?

    Yes you can, I've done it myself and it works pretty good.
    Usually doing this results in slower performance because the application's binaries aren't a type Intel's processor can read. So Apple's application Rosetta compiles these binaries and translates them to Intel to be read by the computer.
    This all happens while you running the application, which is why performance is slower.
    Not to worry much about the technical terms, I'm sure all you want to know is if it's possible, and it is.

  • CS4 Master Suite Upgrade = Photoshop STONEHENGE loading screen

    This evening I purchased the upgrade to CS4 for my CS3 Master Suite. All applications installed without error however Photoshop loads with the beta Stonehenge loading screen. How is this possible? The version number is listed as: 11.0x20080826. At no time did I install beta software--the only existing install was CS3. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
    Dave

    i what you need to tell them is pretty much what the original poster said.
    Well, as we can see from Ryan's post they are not even aware of the issue. There should be a specific issue that this is called that all of Adobe support has been made aware of so we all do not have to go through 10 levels of support and spend hours on the phone. Please escalate this issue with the powers that are at Adobe and treat your customers with more respect.
    Instead of taking the attitude that the customer is lucky that anyone from Adobe is paying attention to the user forums, a much better way to handle this situation would be for Adobe to initiate the contact with the customers who they know are affected. So far, the only people here with the issue are people who downloaded the master collection from the Adobe store. Adobe has e-mail addresses for all of these people. Why not be proactive and send them an e-mail instead of having everyone call up Adobe and ask "Am I supposed to have a Stonehenge Screen when I start photoshop CS4?" I didn't even know whether or not this was a real issue. And I am sure that there are many customers who have this problem but are unaware of it and won't come to this thread to find out.
    Adobe management can either address this problem as if they have some respect for their customers or they can just wait for people to complain.

  • CS4 Master Collection Won't Install

    Alright...so I insert the Adobe CS4 Master Collection DVD (yes, the first disc) and the autorun comes up. I hit install and nothing happens. I see in the task manager that setup runs for anywhere from 30 seconds to a couple minutes (tried this quite a few times) and then terminates. I wanna know what's going on. I've already searched the internet for answers as well as tried everything in the Adobe KB and every related topic here on the user-to-user forums. My specs are as follows:
    AMD Athlon X2 4200+ (2.2GHz/core)
    4gb DDR2 1066 RAM
    250gb SATA HDD
    Nvidia GeForce 9800GT
    Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 64-bit

    If you've gone through all of that, I can only offer one more thing to
    try before calling Adobe.
    Create a new user account and install it there. If that doesn't do it
    you're going to have to call Adobe for help...installation issues are
    handled free of charge.
